2)Fry the mustard seeds, Senagapappu / Bengal gram dal, Minapappu / black gram, Dhaniya, chillies, tomatoes and curry leafs for 5 mins with out oil on a low flame.

3) Let the mixture cool down and grind them with out water.

4) Add soaked tamarind to the mixture and grind it well. (Only add tamarind with out water).

5) Now add dosakaya pieces and grind it. The consistancy depends on your wish. You can grind it very smooth or you can grind it only 1 or 2 rounds just like me so that dosakaya pieces remains mostly as pieces instead of a smooth mixture.

6) Put pan and add oil, mustard seeds, curry leafs, Minapappu / black gram, and Inguva/asafoetida and let it fry for 1 min. Add dosakaya mixture to the pan and fry for 1 to 2 mins on a low flame.
